Memory Care Communities in Plainview, NY

"We looked at Sunrise of East Meadow. We liked it. We thought it looked very nice. The rooms were fine. They were just a little more expensive than what we were specifically looking for. The staff was excellent. The upkeep was excellent too. There was nothing negative about the place. Everything was very nice. We certainly would have been very happy there. However, the way the room was set up was a little different than what we had, also my sister would have to get a higher-level room to have her own bathroom there, but she needed her own bathroom. That was really the determining factor in all of these places. The parking area was fine. No problems with it."

"My mother-in-law is going into the Harbor House. They were good. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The residents were talking to the kitchen chef to find out if they needed any changes. They had a barber shop and a salon. I saw the outdoor seating area, the patio, the room, and the community area. The room was very nice. Harbor House takes Medicaid and she has Medicaid."

"We toured Sunrise of Dix Hills. I thought it was very good as far as I'm concerned. My mother-in-law at this moment stays in a room and it looks like the Sunrise facility was more likely to get her more involved, plus, it's $4,000 a month cheaper. We went out to all the rooms and spoke to the different people involved and saw all the facilities they had. They're fine. They're clean and bright and they have windows to the inside. So it looks like you have your own apartment. You can even have a cat and they have a cat that runs around there. We checked the dining area. They have an assortment of foods. Also, if for some reason you don't like any of the foods, they'll make you a basic hamburger, hot dog, or some basic food above and beyond what they're cooking. The staff was great."

"The rooms are spacious and kept clean. I like the fact that the main floor is a meeting hub for the residents"

"My wife moved into Sunrise of Glen Cove. I like the ratio of staff to patients, the variety of activities, and the atmosphere. The staff is very accommodating. I usually have lunch with my wife there once a week. They have a social director who provides activities during the morning and afternoon to keep the residents involved. It's very expensive. They provide breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They have an extensive porch."

"The Regency Assisted Living is beautiful, beautiful, and beautiful. The only thing with them is that there is a waiting list for memory care. It is almost an hour to get home, and I wanted something that's a little closer. It was clean and very nice. The memory care was in a locked facility. There is a lot of stimulation. It smells wonderful. The staff was lovely. There are a lot of amenities. Everybody seemed very happy. However, the drawback was the location and the waiting list. The room was a single room, and it was very nice. The staff who gave the tour was wonderful. She was very nice, and she answered all my questions. The facility was beautiful. My only complaint is that it didn't have a parking lot, and you had to park across the street."

"I got to tour Atria East Northport. Diego gave me a tour. It was very pleasant surroundings. Lovely outdoors. People seemed to be active. There were activities and opportunities to watch movies and do various activities. Nice accommodations as far as the room accommodations. The common areas were very nice, too. I liked Atria East Northport. It also happened to be within walking distance of my house. My husband, as the weeks passed, became more and more debilitated, so I needed a place with a little more hands-on nursing, so Atria would have been my choice for assisted living. It appeared to be clean and well-kept. Nice physical surroundings. The staff was very pleasant, very accommodating, and very available. He made himself available if I had any questions. He would either answer immediately or get right back to me. And as we walked around, the other staff were smiling and friendly."

"I'm very impressed with Birchwood Suites. I liked it very much, but I want to see other options, and the price was high. I want independent living, and I'd like to have a place to sit outside, and I am coming with my cat. I like that I had kind of my own cottage with two entrances, and it had an outside little tiny patio where I could sit. I spoke to the director, Natasha, and she led me around the place. She was very nice and very encouraging. The facility looked pretty good. I had a separate bedroom, a separate living room, and a small kitchenette. The bathroom looked good."

"I moved into Atria Bay Shore as my husband health was declining and he needed help. The care provided here has been exceptional. The staff is attentive, compassionate, and always willing to go the extra mile. It’s clear that they genuinely prioritize the comfort and health of their residents. I’m consistently impressed by the professionalism and kindness displayed from the staff."

"We toured Sunrise of North Lynbrook. They showed us the cafeteria in this facility, but they didn't offer food. They showed us where the residents would be eating. Everything was top-notch. It was very clean. As you walk in, you're greeted by somebody at the desk. It was a secure place, and they offered a lot."

"Atria Park of Great Neck is the best in terms of cleanliness, level of care, and professionalism. They're top-notch. My father's been there for two weeks now and I visited him many times. The only problem he complains about is the lack of Chinese-speaking staff over there. They have someone who is Chinese, but there's only one and she's also the nurse supervisor. So, I don't want her to be bogged down by this question because she has her duty already. Beyond that, his room is OK. The environment is nice. This place is good. As far as the staff, I don't have much to complain about. They are pretty good. I haven't seen the meals up close because they don't allow family in the dining room but the setting is very good. They escort my father to the dining room for three meals. So, he has enough exposure, including the trip to the dining room, activities, and all that. The facility itself, compared to the other places I visited, is very clean. There's no smell in the air. They're relatively new, in fact, compared to other places. I was there the other day and I've seen their activity that involves the whole residency. They try and the participation from the residents is good (if they can participate). People who do not have the mental or physical capacity, are present, but they don't necessarily have people to help them really to fully enjoy the environment. It's pretty expensive. If there is something that can be improved, that would be the cost side, but I don't think that's something wrong. There's a slight delay in their response to someone who presses the request button, but it's minor. If they could allow my father to have an electric wheelchair, it would probably help him some, because he is not fully mobile on one side so a regular wheelchair is not all that useful, but they don't allow it. He has to be moved around by a person. They respond to requests like "Can I get a better bed for him to get out?" and they ordered a hospital bed for him. So that helped. I asked whether they could get a better seat cushion because he is not able to sit in a regular wheelchair for a long time and they respond to that sort of thing. They're minor things. I don't think it's a big deal."

"We couldn't be more grateful for the care and attention my father-in-law is receiving at Atria Senior Living in Lynbrook. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming, warm, and full of life. The staff is not only professional but also incredibly kind and attentive—they truly treat residents like family. What really stands out is the level of engagement and activities provided daily. Whether it's music, games, or outings, there's always something to keep the residents stimulated and social. My father-in-law has made new friends and often tells us how much he enjoys the events and meals. The dining options are excellent and tailored to meet a variety of needs and preferences. The facility itself is always clean, bright, and thoughtfully maintained. It brings us such peace of mind knowing he is not only safe but thriving in a supportive, caring environment. We highly recommend Atria in Lynbrook to any family looking for compassionate, high-quality senior living. It has truly been a blessing for our family. Thank you The Creagh's."

"Whisper Woods of Smithtown seemed very clean and very professionally run. The staff during the tour was very knowledgeable. Everything looked wonderful. It was very comfortable."
